The rain and high winds didn't come in last night. There was a two minute shower at about 7am, then nothing until mid morning, which then set in for 16mm. Saves watering for a couple of days.
Rosie the Roomba did the kitchen today, she's quite efficient on the smooth surface, and put herself back on the charging dock when she'd run out of power. I reckon a tour every second day will make a big difference in the kitchen.
Annie is dropping production or Abe is taking more milk, not sure which and either is equally likely at this stage of the lactation. Calves go through growth spurts and their milk consumption surges with it. If it keeps up Robyn's two hereford calves will go back to her when the pellets run out next time. The extra month on milk has helped them catch up to their herd mates. I will just have Joey and Star on the milk then, and can probably stop feeding them pellets until they are old enough to wean completely.
Kelly and I were hoping to have lunch at the new patisserie, but it was packed out. So we went down to the Beehive and had toasted fingers and chai lattes there. It has a good atmosphere. Lunch with Robyn tomorrow will be at the old Rhubaba now Ferns. It will be our first meal there with the new owners.
The back bedroom is now ready for the visiting vet students, and I can move onto setting up the bed in the office. Two together is a little inconvenient, but some of the youngsters prefer to travel together.
I put a beef brisket into the slow cooker at lunchtime and we had that for dinner. Roast veges in the air fryer. Tomorrow we can sop up some of the gravy with garlic bread for lunch.
